Abstract

1482361 Hopper payout mechanism SPIRAL STEP TOOL CO 17 July 1974 [1 Aug 1973] 31742/74 Headings G4X and G4V [Also in Division B8] A hopper payout mechanism 10 for various coin denominations comprises a hopper 11, a pin wheel 12, a removable and replaceable shelf wheel 14 having a preselected diametrical relationship to the diameter of the pin wheel, a plurality of circumferentially spaced pins 21 on the pin wheel but radially outside the shelf wheel, a pivotally adjustable knife 18 having a point portion 34 positioned to pick-up coins adjacent the periphery of the shelf wheel, shoot means 50 in coin delivery communication with the knife point, and drive means for rotating the pin wheel and the shelf wheel. Hopper 11 has a helical gutter 32 to prevent jamming. An agitator 15 is connected to shelf wheel 14 and a cone spider 40 is fixed to pin wheel 12. Cones 41 on arms 42 project through holes 44, 45 to help stir up coins. Drive is from a shaft 35 and pin 36 which engages a drive pad 75. Wiper 16 removes overlaying coins when the wheels are rotated anticlockwise as shown. Knife 18 is pivotally mounted at 38 to be adjustable to different diameter shelf wheels. Part of the knife forms one side of shoot 50 as does cover 20 and coin deflector 19. The deflector has a bent forward portion to direct coins into the shoot. There is a yieldable counter 22 which can be arranged to switch off the drive motor when a predetermined number of coins have been dispensed. Also the counter helps to propel the coins into the shoot. Rollers 30 mount pin wheel 12 accurately, the rollers may be resiliently biased. The hopper and the wheels may be pivoted at 55 with a resilient member 56 supporting them. When a certain load is in the hopper a switch 62 is activated to stop more coins entering the hopper.
